Why Montgomery of course. The former confederate capitol of the south. Not sure if you were trolling or not..... Same location as it's rival school R.E. Lee. Schools that were once predominantly white but are now predominately black.Where is Jefferson Davis High School? Its very name implies it is locatted in the South, as Jefferson Davis was the president of the Confederacy. But, it wjich Southern community is it located?

No surprise though, lots of tributes to confederate pride be it schools, statues and monuments, organizations, and etc still exist throughout parts of the south.
In my hometown of Huntsville, another school named Lee High School was being rebuilt and about to have it's name changed. That school has become majority Black as well but influential alumni protested and the name stayed.And Alabama has made it illegal to remove them. I wonder if that applies to changing the name of schools with Confederate names and mascots. With those schools being majority Black, it's like forcing Black kids to honor a person that saw Black people as property and not human.
It's Now Illegal In Alabama To Remove Confederate Monuments
The law comes after other states have started to take their monuments down.m.huffpost.com

In my present residential city of Memphis, a situation happened a few years ago where a confederate statue stood for years. Some Black lawyers got together and did a slick move in purchasing the land and got the statues removed before others could figure out what happened. It cause quite a fuss. I share all of this to say it can be done but, it won't happen without a fight.

Good luck to the kid, but why do you think it'll be interesting?Good pick up, next few seasons.... it'll be interesting

Where is atl Hornet at when he's actually needed? Any other time he's all over the place in here when unwanted. lolI think it would be interesting because his marching style mimics JSU's drum majors more than Alabama State's drum majors, providing that they make him one of their drum majors in the future. It would have seemed like he would have picked JSU over Alabama State, but other factors might have been involved in his decision, such as academic programs and staying in-state.

How would you describe ASU's DM style?On two fronts....when/if he tries out for DM, does he conform to ASU's style or does ASU allow some "innovations?" Secondly, does this spur increase attendance from locals i.e. his friends, family, the curious in general?
Hill-Eley puts a good team together combined with this side show=perfect storm $$$$$

Hell I wish the kid luck. Black kids would rather go to Alabama and Auburn. So at least someone wants to attend our schools.
And Alabama has made it illegal to remove them. I wonder if that applies to changing the name of schools with Confederate names and mascots. With those schools being majority Black, it's like forcing Black kids to honor a person that saw Black people as property and not human.

To answer the first question, I don't see Bama State changing up things just because of him. If he wants to eventually earn the DM spot, he's going to have to learn their style and conform to that.

To answer the second question, I'm sure if he'll garner some attention if, and that's a big if, he earns the right to be a drum major.
